Romantic Androgyny: The Women Within
Diane Hoeveler
Romantic Androgyny is the first study to systematically apply the currents of French and Anglo-American feminist literary criticism to an analysis of the major poetry of the Romantic period. Diane Hoeveler argues that Romantic male poets self-consciously employed the feminine as "Other" and as an alternative source of value in order to engage in a fictional completion of their own psyches. Furthermore, a large proportion of the "women" in the poetry of the major Romantics cannot be understood apart from this radical metaphoric tradition of literary absorption.
Because of the power of the feminine as "Other," women in English Romantic poetry have been on the one hand idealized and on the other denigrated by critics in the field. Hoeveler attempts to correct the flaws of both views by placing the various images of women into a psychoanalytical and historical framework. All six canonical poets participated in one of their culture's dominant ideological fantasies that imaginative creativity was possible for males only if they absorbed the feminine principle and thus became androgynous. Romantic Androgyny argues that the images of the symbolic woman were determined by the poets' adherence to the ideologies of both androgyny and the Eternal Feminine that permeated late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century England.

Robert Bellarmine: Spiritual Writings
John Donnelly S.J. and Roland Teske S.J.
There are few figures in the history of the Church that have had such a wide-ranging effect on the religious life of their age as Robert Bellarmine. Born in Tuscany in 1542, he entered the Society of Jesus at the height of the Counter-Reformation. His first major work, The Controversies, was published in 1586 and became the standard apologetic used in disputes with the Protestants. His revision of the Latin Vulgate Bible that had been commissioned by the Council of Trent became the standard Catholic text for over three hundred years. In 1597 he published his most popular and memorable work, Dottrina cristiana breve. That short catechism was used by Jesuit missionaries in sixty-two languages for over three centuries. Scholar, bishop, and saint, Bellarmine was a true Renaissance figure whose diverse skills shaped the Church of his day.
Perhaps less well known is his contribution to the spiritual tradition of post-Tridentine Catholic spirituality. In this volume, two of his most influential ascetical works have been produced for the first time in modern English translations. The Mind's Ascent to God (1614) is a treatment of the steps involved in ascending to union with God, written in the tradition of Bonaventure and John Climacus. Characterized by Pierre Pourrat as a work of "optimistic piety, overflowing with divine love," it became an almost instant success, with five Italian editions done in the first year of publication. By 1930 some sixty editions in over fourteen different languages had promulgated what is arguably Bellarmine's most beautiful and inspiring spiritual work.
In 1619 he published his last ascetical piece, The Art of Dying Well, which is included here in its entirety. Drawing on the medieval genre of books on death, it blended a traditional approach with elements of new piety of the Renaissance and Counter-Reformation. Together these two works, introduced masterfully by John Donnelly, provide a deep insight into the piety of a great figure.

Radio Warfare: OSS and CIA Subversive Propaganda
Lawrence Soley
Radio Warfare examines the propaganda strategy of Hitler's Germany, British responses to this strategy, and the effect of British actions on U.S. psychwar techniques. The book's emphasis is U.S. subversive warfare during World War II, for studies of British and German psychological warfare strategy during this conflict have been described elsewhere. Serfton Delmer's Black Boomerang (1962), Charles Cruickshank's The Fourth Arm (1977), and Ellic Howe's The Black Game (1982) are studies of British subversive warfare techniques. J. A. Cole's Lord Haw-Haw and William Joyce (1965) and Willi Boelke's Die Macht des Radio (1977) examine German subversive propaganda. Radio Warfare is the first study of the United States' radio warfare methods.

Team Entrepreneurship
Alex Stewart
Entrepreneurship has typically been described in terms of the drama of venture start ups, leveraged buy-outs, acts of risk and personal vision. Entrepreneurship, however, exists in more forms and in more places than the more dramatic examples would lead us to believe. In this innovative volume, Alex Stewart examines an emerging approach to managing: collective entrepreneurship by employees. Based on research conducted from the inside of a fast-growing firm, Stewart shows that entrepreneurship is both collective, a team-based activity and individual, a leader-made creation. Team Entrepreneurship focuses on the management within a small but highly successful division of an automotive manufacturing firm and considers competitiveness, nonunionization, strategy, labor markets, manufacturing, and organizational politics. The success of collective entrepreneurship is shown to result from a unique approach to both market and organizational challenges--"running hot." Stewart describes how a company can "run hot" by seizing opportunities in serving a difficult market upon which the business must then depend. He first looks at the market and at employees as an internally nurtured team; then, he describes "running hot" in a discussion of work action, management authority, and the transformational capabilities necessary for the company to succeed. Finally, he relates the concept to cross-cultural studies of entrepreneurship. Although not a unique concept, team entrepreneurship is an important development for understanding entrepreneurial activities by employees in profit-seeking firms. Accessible and comprehensive, Team Entrepreneurship is necessary reading for scholars and professionals in the areas of business and management, as well as anthropology and sociology.

Paradox, Dialectic, and System
Howard P. Kainz
This book undertakes a critical analysis of some central problems in Hegel scholarship. It is concerned with clarifying the theoretical underpinnings of paradox, the possible relationship of paradox to a dialectic logic, and the possibilities of systematization of dialectic and/or paradox. The author begins with a discussion of current attitudes toward paradox in mathematics, science, and logic, and then moves gradually toward a differentiation of philosophical paradox in the strict sense from literary, religious, and logic paradox. The relationship of dialect to paradox is elucidated by means of a phenomenological analysis of self-consciousness. Finally, possible approaches to the systematization of dialectic are considered. Analyzing and evaluating Hegel's dialectical-paradoxical system in particular, Dr. Kainz also addresses the question of viable alternatives to Hegel's approach.
While paradox is generally considered by philosophers and logicians as something to be avoided, Kainz's study investigates the possibility that it is an important and even indispensable element of constructive thinking in philosophy as well as other disciplines. Paradox, Dialect, and System is this a contribution not only to Hegel scholarship but to philosophy itself. It will be of particular interest to this concerned with the differentiation of dialectical and nondialectical philosophical systems and with the prevalence of paradox in literature, religion, and contemporary physics.

Clandestine Radio Broadcasting: A Study of Revolutionary and Counterrevolutionary Electronic Communication
Lawrence Soley and John S. Nichols
It is difficult to imagine a subject with more elusive data than this. The source and location of clandestine radio broadcasts are, by definition, secret. `White' stations openly identify themselves (such as Radio Free Europe), and `gray' stations are purportedly operated by dissident groups within a country, although actually they might be located in another nation; but `black' stations transmit broadcasts by one side disguised as broadcasts by another. . . . [This] is an extraordinary book. It belongs in every research library concerned with war and revolution and international communications. A valuable appendix lists known clandestine radio stations, 1948-1985. Choice
In this ambitious and impressive study two academic specialists in the field of political communication have endeavored to cover the history of such broadcasts from the beginnings in the 1930s through the use of psychological warfare and deception of World War II to the manifold practice of `gray' and `black' propaganda that had punctuated the conflict of the postwar period.

Counseling Exceptional Students
Anthony F. Rotatori, Paul J. Gerber, Freddie W. Litton, and Robert A. Fox
This book was designed by its authors to convey the disability-specific information necessary for counseling efforts to support the mainstreamed exceptional child. Successful counseling with exceptional children calls for background on such issues as etiology, definition, prevalence, and characteristics. Moreover, knowledge of counseling problems as viewed by children, their parents, and teachers is necessary to provide balance to the ecological perspectives needed to counsel the "whole child." The authors also have included within the discussion of each chapter successful counseling findings related in the literature. This in no way precludes other approaches or modalities of counseling, but it does provide a basis and direction for education personnel who are counseling exceptional children.
The exceptionalities represented in this book are selected because of the frequency in which these children are found in mainstreamed classes. Admittedly, there will be a higher incidence of certain exceptionalities, for example, learning-disabled children versus visually handicapped children. However, the spirit of the least restrictive environment has placed children of all exceptionalities in the mainstream. As special education enters its second decade in the Public Law 94-142 era, the futures of exceptional children will depend in part on the efforts of counseling personnel who clearly have an important role in the lives of mainstreamed children.
